Man convicted of road rage stabbing wears blackface to court, claims he was treated ‘like a black man’ (Photos)












A man convicted at a Hawaii court on Monday for his role in a road rage stabbing attack wore blackface to court to protest the system treated him "like a black man."


Mark Char, an Oahu, Hawaii resident, was found guilty in March of 3 counts of attempted murder after he stabbed three people in 2016, a driver, a passenger, and an uninvolved third-party driver in what appeared to be a road rage-induced attack.



One of the victims was stabbed 5 times and was hospitalized in critical condition after the stabbing, reported KGMB-TV.



Char was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole on Monday.

“Now this kangaroo court is giving me a life sentence for me trying to protect and defend myself against the attack from three guys, in essence treating me like a black man,” said Char shortly before he was sentenced, which was recorded by KGMB-TV. He is not black.

"I prepared myself to play my part in your kangaroo court — treating me like a black man, so today I’m going to be a black man.”



Mr. Char who reportedly used a black permanent marker to give himself blackface requested the court to put a stay on his sentencing pending his appeals, but Judge Todd W. Eddins denied his request to stay sentencing.



"If you look in the mirror, Mr. Char, you’re not gonna see a black person," said Judge Todd Eddins in his sentencing, KITV reported. "You’re gonna see a menace. You’re gonna see a menace to society.”

“This continues a pattern of disruptive behavior designed to undermine the administration of justice,” Eddins said, before sentencing Char to life in prison with the possibility of parole.
